Kirk Snyder

Gerald Green to Houston

Apparently the Wolves were able to grant Gerald Green's request to be traded. MyFox Houston is reporting that Green has told them he is being traded to his hometown Rockets. In return, the Wolves get guard Kirk Snyder and a future 2nd round pick.

My gut reaction is "good for the Wolves." Snyder's nothing special, but is a cheap youngster that will be a restricted free agent this summer; the pick will be late in whatever draft it's in, but gives the Wolves another asset; Gerald has not shown any reason to keep him around. I still think they should have exercised Green's team option, but that's water under the bridge now. This is better than just letting Green walk. More details as they surface.
